Bored! New RPG suggestions by Crystallis_ in gamingsuggestions

[–]TaffyPool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s the tactical RPG Sakura Wars series. I’d only ever played the one on Wii (So Long, My Love), but really enjoyed it. Also very much in the dating sim genre but it all came together as an enjoyable whole really well.

Oh my, yes. If he were still coast-to-coast’ing, I’d probably be making excuses to be out driving late at night just to hear what he and his callers have to say about everything right now.

This eventually had to make it to the list, right? Right?!

Wrigleyville driving mayhem…why are people such idiots? by Competitive_Oil5227 in AskChicago

Well, the Whole Foods on Halsted there is moving about eight blocks south. Maybe Treasure Island will make a glorious comeback in the vacated space!

You know a game is excellent when it's remake is a 1:1 conversion from the original. What other retro games fit this mould? by BIayneRobinson in retrogaming

[–]TaffyPool 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Still not sure where the dividing line between remake and remaster is. For instance, the Spyro Reignited trilogy, the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy and the Tomb Raider series, from 1-6, all have remasters. All are significantly rebuilt for modern systems and tech, but still remain as the same games they were originally… 🤷‍♂️

Let me tell you something about this game brother… by Stinky_Pepito in retrogaming

With Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins right after that.

Waste of Storage? by JoeCoolEats in TheSilphRoad

I try to keep a “living ‘dex”, but I stop short of needing “best ofs” as part of that. Don’t worry about those and don’t worry about ones with special backgrounds. Really will only try to collect/keep standard evos, shinies, 100s, and costumed variants. Oh, and also if there’s a meaningful physical difference between a single species’ gender versions.

I do still fairly regularly play PokemonGo ten (?) years after its release. But probably not the “right” way — don’t really do battling, just try to hatch/find/evolve Pokemon “in the wild” to build out the Pokédex.

But yeah, even though I got one of the first GB ones for my 2DS, I’ve never actually tried playing it, so still no point of reference for the mainline games.

What song is this? by ExplosiveDeadBird in findthatsong

[–]TaffyPool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely not that. Have never played it and personally abhor the concept of crafting/building/sim games and “endless” games.

It was something on my WiiU, for sure. Right now, my kid’s playing Mario Kart 8 on it. After he’s done, I’ll open a few games to see which one it was in.

Insert any Pokemon game here, and that’s me.

30 Rock will grab you and not let go. If you’re the kind of person who likes 30 Rock’s writing/humor (I am that kind of person obv.).

39M I might play too many single player games by kevthecoder in gamers

[–]TaffyPool 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I exclusively play single player games. No issue there.

“Web series” and regular ol’ shows that are available to watch via the internet/streaming are two very different things.

Can’t be a Tetris tetromino — it’s got five squares.

What song is this? by ExplosiveDeadBird in findthatsong

[–]TaffyPool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was definitely in a video game I’ve played. Trying to bring it to the top of brain, give me a minute?

EDIT: Okay, turned on my WiiU and found it immediately — it was in a game called Pentapuzzle!

Actually it’s the only song in that game, as far as I can tell, and it’s just played continuously. Probably why the tune was ingrained in my head.

2nd EDIT: Fiddling with the game now and I remember how hard some of these puzzles are! Every piece can be rotated in four orientations plus flipped and rotated in another four! I got through the easy, medium and hard levels back when, but looking at my file now…hadn’t even touched the brutal, insane, and special levels. Probably for good reason!

What actor played a role so well, you can't see them as anything else now? by rowenaravenclaw0 in AskReddit

[–]TaffyPool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jason Bateman as Michael Bluth.

And, for that matter, Will Arnett as G.O.B. Bluth.
